When you visit or have visited one of our bars, restaurants or café venues, we will collect personal data about your preferences, use of our services, and location. We will retain this information for two year from the date of your visit, or for as long as you are opted in to marketing from us.

4b. How Long Do We Keep Personal Information For?

We will generally retain your personal information for as long as is necessary for the purpose it was collected unless we need to retain it for legal purposes or in accordance with commercial practice and regulatory requirements.
